On arrival

If you're flying in to Goa bear in mind there can be a queue when going through customs and waiting for baggage to arrive.

Travel time from Goa airport to the hotel is approximately 90 mins.

We encourage you to get our bus transfer leaving Goa airport at 1pm on Mon 20th. Look out for the Ashram sign.

Hotel check-in is from 2pm although if you arrive in the hotel earlier our team will be there so just message us on whatsapp.

For those arriving in the early morning we'll do our best to allow you an early check-in. but as this depends on your rooms being vacant the day before we can't promise anything. There are sun loungers and comfortable seating areas dotted around the hotel though so either way you'll be able to relax on arrival.

Schedule

There'll be an optional early morning activity on most days (e.g. yoga) from about 7am with breakfast from 8-9am. We'll aim for lunch at 1pm and dinner at 7pm, but depending on where we are this may vary. Where possible we'll try and eat together as a group.

If this all sounds like a lot to cover, do bear in mind none of these trips are mandatory, so if you wanted to have a quiet day you could pick and choose whether to join us or not. This is about you having the week you want. No pressure. But we know for many of you this is your first time in India, so we wanted to give you a flavour of what this beautiful country has to offer.

If you'd like to run a session or activity throughout the week on any topic that you think might be of interest to the group then email Laurence. We'll try and make room!
